"When you see the ingredients you wouldn't think that this meal would be delicious; however, it might be my new favorite spicy but yet sweet meal. I didn't use the regular blueberry preserve, I used sugar-free (just because it was something I already had in my pantry) and it was great. It wasn't overly sweet. Great dish. """

How the heck did we get here? A history of affordable housing in Seattle
Some things worked, some failed. Some opportunities were lost. Some are the envy of other progressive cities. As Crosscut thinks about affordable housing as part of its Community Idea Lab, we remember the affordable housing policies that have come before and the effects they've had.
1970: Boeing chooses not to develop its supersonic aircraft (SST). Tens of thousands lose their jobs and vacancy rates hit 16 percent. Seattle goes into a serious funk. Even the rain puddles are depressed. People are offering you their house for free. They are actually willing to give you the key rather than see it go back to the bank.
Kurt Cobain is only three but later would later write:
Disease covered Puget Sound
She'll come back as fire, to burn all the liars
And leave a blanket of ash on the ground
Is he thinking about Seattle's housing plunge because it rhymed with grunge? Clearly not. But speaking of fires….
1970: Fires in downtown! After two multi-fatality fires in downtown single-room occupant (SRO) buildings, the Ozark fire ordinance is passed.
Preservation Seattle, an online newspaper of the nonprofit Historic Seattle, would later write:
These two tragedies, which were some of the worst in Seattle history, resulted in retroactive amendments to the fire code in 1970 and to the minimum housing code in 1972. The laws collectively became known as the Ozark Hotel Ordinances, and mandated extensive safety upgrades for most of Seattle's older hotels and apartments -- upgrades that many owners could not afford. As a result, thousands of low-cost housing units were lost, buildings were vacated, redeveloped or demolished, and the character of some of Seattle's oldest urban neighborhoods was forever changed.
Many buildings remain closed from that point onward and the housing market took a tumble: Rents for one-bedroom units fell from $141 in 1968 to $109 in 1971.
1975: Many of the buildings affected by the Ozark Ordinance are in the International District. Concern with preserving cultural identities and affordable housing sparks the creation of the Seattle Chinatown International District Preservation and Development Authority and International District Housing Alliance.
These groups start out as activist organizers, defending the district from the effects of the Kingdome, but eventually morph into non-profit housing developers. Despite a variety of financial incentives, many building owners in the ID resist the call to upgrade their buildings and the upper floors of many buildings remain empty.

A long recovery continues. Homes are available in Wallingford for $25,000. That would be for a home on a double lot, but who cares? No one has any money, and the city is still trying to find its feet after getting clobbered by the Boeing bust.
1975: With rents now rising off depression lows, feisty attorney Marie Donohoe organizes a campaign for rent control. Landlords show up in force and Ms. Donohoe and her campaign are squished at a hearing before City Council.
1976: Capitol Hill Housing begins as a home improvement program, but later morphs into a stalwart neighborhood-based housing development organization.The organization first renovates and later builds new buildings, providing 1,800 housing units in 44 buildings.
1978: An important year for housing and growth.
- Seattle home prices, after languishing, suddenly shoot up, the first of several end-of-decade jumps. The city launches new zoning code, which manages to simultaneously anger both single-family preservationists and housing activists.
- Neighborhood organization Southeast Effective Development (SEED) calls for 1,000 units of new low-income housing to be dispersed throughout the city.
- Activist John Fox and the Seattle Displacement Coalition start meeting in the basement of a Capitol Hill church. John is single-minded — he decides to devote himself to the issue of preserving Seattle's affordable housing, particularly downtown. He will spend the next forty years plying his argument that the city has a moral responsibility to preserve affordable housing.
- Reverend David Bloom, associated with the Church Council of Greater Seattle (and a co-conspirator with Mr. Fox), calls attention to rising prices and displacement. The Church Council starts a task force on Housing and Urban Decay, later changed to Housing and Urban Growth. This explicitly marks the change from community concern about decay and disinvestment to concern about the consequences of reinvestment and growth. Looking for the beginning of churches and tent cities? In a 1978 Seattle Times article, Reverend Bloom ponders "an intriguing possibility" for churches to look at the property they own and find ways to use it to reduce the housing crunch.
- Meanwhile, the city launches a new zoning code, Single Unit Detached Residential. Among many inconsequential changes, one stood out, at least to traditional neighborhood interests: The city's decision to change the words from "single-family" to "single unit." Seattle yawns, except for someone on the Queen Anne Community Council. "Density is Death!" he shouts. Concerned about duplexes and a possible conspiracy to change the city's single-family zoning, he rallies the Federation. The Seattle Community Council Federation that is.
Originally founded in 1946 to help resettle Japanese-American internees returning to Seattle and help Black veterans coming back from the war, SCCF eventually morphed to protect and preserve traditional single-family neighborhoods. At one time, this was a powerful alliance of neighborhood organizations that had substantial clout. Even though the City Council was elected at-large, individual neighborhood councils like the Mount Baker Community Club — which gave birth to such leaders as Ron Sims and Norm Rice — could band together under the Federation's banner and stop policy initiatives in their tracks. The Federation successfully blocks detached residential buildings in single-family areas, which will remain sacrosanct, off-limits to redevelopment. This means that other areas in the city will have to be the place for growth.

This whirlwind tour covers most of the bases but is in such a hurry that facts not that hard to find have been overrun by rumors and lore standard to the industry.
You miss entirely what got Belltown going and made it possible for ordinary people to live there: the mid-1980s Seattle Planning Comission's recommendation to DOWNZONE a lot of it to five over two (five floors of wood frame over two noncombustible).
West Seattle objections to urban villages do not condense to the West Seattle Junction (the Big Junction). For one thing, the ring leader, Charlie Chong's locale was the Admiral Junction. For the real and entire bill of fare, type "West Seattle Defense Fund" at Google search and up pops the Growth Management Hearing Board's Final Decision and Order.
With benefit of hindsight, what city planners planned and Charlie, et al, feared turned out to be the opposite of what has come to pass—the urban village problem has been gentrification and displacement, not apartments affordable to low income and working families who can not, may never, afford to buy a house. As you allude, bonuses, upzoning, and whatever else that raises density raises land prices unless, that is, long term affordable units are the ONLY bonus granted.
Although such a thing has been allowed in Washington state for many years, public officials have been "encouraged" to see no distinction between goodies i.e. "benefits" that increase rentabilitity (rents) and quality, affordable, well designed housing. Unless one is a non-profit frantically shopping for all the grants, etc. one can find, the land prices inching skyward in the name of affordability and imagineering prescribe the problem, aka "the solution renews the question anew." Engels 1872, The Housing Question.
Posted Fri, Jun 6, 5:21 p.m.
It's interesting that Mr. Spelman starts out with the Ozark Ordinances and the resulting declining availability of cheap housing. Our City Council has recently passed an "Housing Inspection Ordinance" which has a similar motivation: namely to force property owners to bring their buildings up to something similar to present day code compliance. The obvious downside of that is that once the uninvolved landlord makes the required upgrades he is no longer obliged to rent the dwelling for a concessionary price so the rents go up. Who would have ever foreseen that?
Posted Sat, Jun 7, 2:44 p.m.
There needs to be some skepticism concerning the Eicher study--the figures presented lead to an absurd conclusion.
According to the TIMES coverage, "Between 1989 and 2006, the median inflation-adjusted price of a Seattle house rose from $221,000 to $447,800. Fully $200,000 of that increase was the result of land-use regulations, says Theo Eicher…" If true, this would mean that without new regulations housing prices would have risen only $26,800 over a period of almost 20 years.
Given the growth in the number of Seattle residents (and would-be residents) in that time, it is absurd to claim that the cost of houses (a fixed resource given that the city single-family neighborhoods were already largely built out in 1989) would have gone up at a rate of only $1500/year. Or is Eicher claiming that without new regulations house prices would have remained low because so many existing single-family lots could have been cut up into smaller lots with many, many more new small-footprint but taller houses?
Posted Sun, Jun 8, 4:54 p.m.
Yes, it's easy to get too navel centric.
contains a chart of national housing prices, rent equivalents & mortgage rates 1970 to 2013+. How odd, the entire nation went on urban containment steroid in 1999, rudely yanked off in 2006, and ?
charts on Table 2 page 12 that in 2002, metro-Denver, followed closely by metro-Seattle, led the nation in sprawling the least..."consistent with the recent finding in the Brookings Institution paper, "Who Sprawls Most?" which found that land is consumed for urbanization on a far more efficient basis in the West than in other parts of the nation, and that the Northeast uses land much less efficiently (Fulton et al. 2001)." page 11.
warns again and again in 2002 of the need for further research. Finally in 2012 comes the news:
"Strict containment of urban expansion destroys the homes of the poor and puts new housing out of reach for most people. Decent housing for all can be ensured only if urban land is in ample supply."
To find out why the advice is primarily aimed at urbanizing Asia and Africa one is encouraged to purchase a rather think sounding book. Or one could look around booming again Seattle, which gets us back to where we came in. Truth is stranger than fiction.
Posted Tue, Jul 22, 12:11 p.m.
Why should low income residents be mixed into expensive neighborhoods full of people who actually contribute to society enough to afford such places? If you want to see wages on the low end go up close to downtown, remove all this bullshit low income housing and employers will have no choice but to pay more to find labor in that area.
Every single regulation causes a wound we then blame on the only thing that can heal that wound.. the free market.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

"Absolutely adore this design. The colors were gorgeous online and came out exactly as I imagined in real life. We played with the typeface a bit, but working with the graphic designer made it a breeze. Highly recommend!"
"I ordered the sample first, so I already knew what to expect, but these cards are beautiful and such good quality! I am very pleased with my purchase! If I weren't getting invitations through my venue, I would definitely be heading back here!"
"We ordered these without requesting a sample and got the purple version-we were very impressed with the paper quality. the design is beautiful and we cant wait to send them to our quests!"
"I ordered this card in the green/purple colour scheme and when it arrived it was just stunning. I did not expect the paper quality to be so beautiful, with such a perfect textured feel. Absolutely love them!"
"Chose these for a rustic barn and outdoor ceremony - they are even more perfect in person than on the site. The colors (I chose green lettering) are true to the picture, the paper quality is great compared to other vendors I've received for friends' weddings, the size is awesome and unique - these are perfect for us! I had a designer help push the lettering on the back to the top-left to serve as a return address (the proof was great and quick-turnaround time), and am putting photo stickers in the empty space. Love these! So happy with the finished product!!"

Integrity and Reliability = Trustworthy Accounting: Are You Sure You're Balanced?
Blue Link Associates Limited
Recent accounting scandals, highlighted by cases at Enron, Arthur Andersen, WorldCom, and Qwest, have emphasized the need for corporate governance, especially responsible corporate accounting. Not only must businesses use responsible accounting methods, but they must know that their methods are accurate. Small and mid-sized businesses must know the limitations of their current accounting software; understand the possible ramifications of system accounting balance failure; and take steps to guarantee the integrity, reliability, and accuracy of their systems. This white paper highlights the need to recognize problematic software accounting methods; minimize errors in account balance integrity, ledgers, and sub ledgers; and reduce the need for expensive rectification, to avoid serious legal ramifications.

Six Essential Considerations When Choosing a Field Service Software Solution
Written By:
There are numerous CRM, call center, help desk and ERP solutions available that can help companies control and manage their call center and customer support activities more effectively.

Therefore, it is essential that companies considering software for field service evaluate, select, and deploy software designed specifically for field service.

Sing into Spring: Songbird in Version 1.1
The Songbird music player is now out as version 1.1. Next to some normalization enhancements, the free software includes a watch folders feature and optimized album cover downloads.
Almost a million users have downloaded Songbird so far, according to company claims, and the feedback prompted a few changes, bug fixes and new features in Songbird 1.1, available since last week. Now album cover artwork off the Web is just a mouse-click away, via Last.fm by default, but you can also specify Amazon.com.
The watch folders features allows users to specify which music folder hierarchy to monitor for changes and then automatically import new titles to their libraries. Removed files are also removed from the libraries. The sorting algorithm was also improved with unicode collation and recognition of leading articles such as "the" and "a" in titles. To prevent damage to sensitive eardrums, Songbird adjusts the playback volume if a track's metadata has replay gain, including for iTunes titles.
Overall, Songbird 1.1 should be more stable, use significantly less memory and CPU, and undergo fewer crashes. With large music libraries, the player uses 40% less RAM and playback cuts the CPU usage in half. A very practical feature is that developers can launch Songbird from a URL, such as from a Last.fm stream. One improvement applies to Windows only: better identification of silent spots for a smoother playback. The Windows version also recognizes MTP devices better and can synchronize Windows Media DRM content with them.
Like other open source projects, Songbird wants to make some revenue. Their business model is the 7digital MP3 Store, now in beta, where you can buy high quality MP3s (up to 320 Kbps). Recommendations from 7digital are based on your most recently played track. The music store contributes a part of each purchase to Songbird's development. The U.K. version of the store is now "fully stocked" and the U.S. and European stores, with a few titles still missing, will hopefully soon follow suit.
Download of the bugfix version 1.1.1 of Songbird for Linux is available as a tar.gz here.
Captain Sarcastic Reporting In
You left out the "delete iPod data" feature. Things like that just point to Songbird's amazingly rock-solid design.
Next to the stunning, well thought out interface, that's gotta be it's best feature.

Douay-Rheims (RHE) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 (140-1) I have cried to thee, O Lord, hear me: hearken to my voice, when I cry to thee. | 1 O LORD, I call to you; come quickly to me. Hear my voice when I call to you. |
2 (140-2) Let my prayer be directed as incense in thy sight; the lifting up of my hands, as evening sacrifice. | 2 May my prayer be set before you like incense; may the lifting up of my hands be like the evening sacrifice. |
3 (140-3) Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth: and a door round about my lips. | 3 Set a guard over my mouth, O LORD; keep watch over the door of my lips. |
4 (140-4) Incline not my heart to evil words; to make excuses in sins. With men that work iniquity: and I will not communicate with the choicest of them. | 4 Let not my heart be drawn to what is evil, to take part in wicked deeds with men who are evildoers; let me not eat of their delicacies. |
5 (140-5) The just man shall correct me in mercy, and shall reprove me: but let not the oil of the sinner fatten my head. For my prayer shall still be against the things with which they are well pleased: | 5 Let a righteous man strike me--it is a kindness; let him rebuke me--it is oil on my head. My head will not refuse it. Yet my prayer is ever against the deeds of evildoers; |
6 (140-6) Their judges falling upon the rock have been swallowed up. They shall hear my words, for they have prevailed: | 6 their rulers will be thrown down from the cliffs, and the wicked will learn that my words were well spoken. |
7 (140-7) As when the thickness of the earth is broken up upon the ground: Our bones are scattered by the side of hell. | 7 [They will say,] "As one plows and breaks up the earth, so our bones have been scattered at the mouth of the grave. " |
8 (140-8) But to thee, O Lord, Lord, are my eyes: in thee have I put my trust, take not away my soul. | 8 But my eyes are fixed on you, O Sovereign LORD; in you I take refuge--do not give me over to death. |
9 (140-9) Keep me from the snare, which they have laid for me, and from the stumblingblocks of them that work iniquity. | 9 Keep me from the snares they have laid for me, from the traps set by evildoers. |
10 (140-10) The wicked shall fall in his net: I am alone until I pass. | 10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, while I pass by in safety. |

ITV chairman Michael Grade wants to slash £150m from its budget for public service broadcasting such as news, regional and children's programmes by 2012, when the analogue television signal will be switched off. It is calling on Ofcom, the regulator, to permit a sharp slide in ITV's licence requirements over the next three years. The move would leave the channel free to fill its schedule with entertainment and drama, which is more appealing to advertisers. (Via Sunday TImes)

Programmes to upgrade two key Indian air force types, the Dassault Mirage 2000H and Sepecat Jaguar, continue to be delayed.
The Mirage 2000H upgrade is still being negotiated between the Indian government and Dassault, the air force said. Worth an estimated $2.2 billion, the programme has been pending since India announced its intention to modernise the aircraft in 2004.
A contract is expected to cover upgrades to engines, avionics, navigation systems, mission computers, electronic warfare systems and radars. To be undertaken by Dassault and Thales, the work will bring India's 51 aircraft to the Mirage 2000-9 standard. The service hopes to add 20 years of life to the aircraft, which were introduced between 1985 and 1989.
Indian media frequently attribute the long delays to the deal's cost, which would work out to roughly $41 million per aircraft. The deal was largely expected to be signed during visits by French President Nicholas Sarkozy to India in 2008 and 2010, but neither trip produced an agreement.
Unsurprisingly, the air force is reluctant about giving a ballpark date for the deal's conclusion.
Separately, the air force confirms that a request for proposals to re-engine its Hindustan Aeronautics-produced Jaguar ground-attack aircraft has been formally withdrawn. The document was issued to Honeywell and Rolls-Royce in November 2010, calling for a new engine design. The latter withdrew its bid in February, creating a single bidder situation that is not permissible under Indian procurement policy.
India's Jaguars are now powered by R-R/Turbomeca Adour 811s. The UK company had proposed upgrading these to the Adour 821 standard. The other alternative was Honeywell's F125, which is used on Taiwan's Aerospace Industrial Development Corporation-built F-CK-1 indigenous defence fighter. Honeywell told the Indian air force that the F125 has the extra thrust needed to cope with HAL's upgrades and to increase the aircraft's strike capability.
The air force has yet to announce a new RFP for the Jaguar upgrade.

Peacocks are multiplying in the Longbeach Village again.
Longbeach Village Association President Michael Drake informed Commissioner Gene Jaleski the Village has hired a company to remove peacocks from the neighborhood in early December, and again in mid-December if needed.
"I will not stop until we get down to a dozen birds," Drake wrote in an e-mail to Jaleski.
Ben Feole, a director and ex-president of the Longbeach Village Association, said the peacocks multiplied in huge numbers this summer.
"There's quite a few birds in the Village, and they seem to be everywhere you look as opposed to previous years," Feole said.
Jaleski said there's more than 30 peacocks in the Village to date.
Drake said the Village association has spent about $650 to date to quell the number of birds in the neighborhood.
In May, The Longboat Key Town Commission gave the association $2,400 to reduce a bird population that had grown to more than 60 birds. The commission made the decision after hearing that 1978 commission minutes reflect that the town agreed to help keep the peacock population to a limit of 12 birds.
While some residents of the Village are always upset to see the birds go, many fulltime residents are not sad to bid farewell because they say the birds disrupt traffic, tear up gardens and leave morning bathroom presents on front porches.
Drake urged the commission for help and said the birds, which are a popular tourism attraction for visitors, are a life and safety issue because people feed the birds along Broadway and cause traffic congestion.
"Several Village residents are eager for the peacocks to be removed so that they can return to a normal life in paradise," Jaleski said.

Inklings of a �Plan Mexico�
The United States and Mexico are negotiating a significant aid package to help Mexico fight its drug war. But a "Plan Mexico" faces many...
Interviewee: Elizabeth Kempshall, Head, Drug Enforcement Administration, Arizona
Interviewer: Stephanie Hanson
December 12, 2007
Mexico is the source of 90 percent of the cocaine consumed in the United States. A new U.S. initiative proposes $1.4 billion to help the Mexican government combat organized crime. Yet there is already some collaboration between law enforcement agencies in the two countries. Elizabeth Kempshall, head of the Drug Enforcement Administration in Arizona, discusses her office's increased efforts to share intelligence with its Mexican counterpart. "We want to take out the entire organization," she says, not just individual traffickers. She characterizes the relationship between her office and Mexican law enforcement as "much more robust" and says that intelligence sharing is "increasing every day."
Corruption is endemic in the Mexican police and judiciary, which complicates any cooperation between U.S. and Mexican agencies. The Arizona DEA office works with its Mexico country office to determine who they should share information with, and what they should share. Kempshall declined to discuss the specific details of collaboration, but said that information is being shared in both directions, and called it an "incredible step forward."

- "1995 Grand Am" Album
- Description: Michelle wants to make this car drivable. I believe it was built with the wrong wheels driving it. I've got an extra Firebird sub-frame, a '69 327, a bunch of 2x3 steel tubing, and Brad has the S-10 rear end he took out of his Studebaker truck. I think you know where I heading! I miss my old Monza's! What would you say about a "correct wheel drive" Grand Am? I can just imagine the looks of people when they hear the V-8 rumble as I pull up!

I thought you'd made a mistake meaning muse-score instead of

Yikes! I had no idea that old 2006 page was there.
I could not figure out how to get to it from our pages.
But typing Aeolus into Google, lo and behold - there's /our/ page
at the very top of the Google results.
I've CC'd just to see what Robert and Joachim think.
(Hey Fons, check out the Aeolus logos that Joachim made at page bottom.)
Anyway, question:
How hard would it be to make Aeolus available as a plugin like DSSI,
LV2 or LinuxVST, or... WinVST?
Would that not solve all issues? Official code would always be up to date.
Maybe get the muse-score team to write the WinVST?
Ah, SDK NDAs, cost and so on is a problem? No muse-score WinVST support?
Hm. What can muse-score do? They need something to make noise in Win.
Still, I'm seeing hefty mods to your program out in the wild, maybe take
a look, pick and choose and merge some of them back?
Plugins are preferred over external apps - no added latency.
Also there's the ugly business of session managers and getting the
whole multi-app setup to reload exactly as before.
When no plugin is available, one resorts to quickly hacking up an
embedded version of some cool app. It tends to grow from there.
MusE has never embedded Aeolus as a MESS plugin, but at one time
ZynSubFX was.
Fons you say Aeolus itself does not restore some settings (stops?).
But can a connected app restore them by sending the whole lot
as midi controller values? Even better, if it's a plugin, the infrastructure
is already there (in MusE) to automatically restore settings, rather than
requiring some extra song data or controller values by the user for
said restoration.
Let us host Aeolus some day. Be our guest!

Demi Moore Asks Georgia to Ban Bullhooks
By Admin
Published: May 31, 2011
Demi Moore has written to officials in Georgia encouraging them to ban the use of bullhooks on elephants.
The actress writes, "Today, elephant sanctuaries and most zoos - including Zoo Atlanta - never use bullhooks or other weapon - like tools to punish elephants ... I hope you will extend that inherent decency to elephants used in circuses. I urge you to ban bullhooks. The elephants deserve our kindness, respect, and protection."
Join Demi Moore and her plea to ban bullhooks by signing on to a PETA campaign pre-written letter.

Re:"..know who was using an IP address..." ? (136 comments)
You realize that the United States effectively defined "amendment" and "constitution" in the sense you understand them, right? And that the Bill of Rights was effectively a part of the constitution, despite being posed as amendments." You also realize that you are attacking the US for a minor distinction made 200 years ago, in a country with many more serious and recent problems along the same lines? And that after that small mess, we effectively rewrote your constitution to how it is now?
God, Slashdot has gone to shit. Yesterday 2 trolls modding themselves up to +5, now people with no substantiated facts being modded up simply because they imply the United States is somehow evil. I think it is time to leave this place to burn itself down.
Re:"..know who was using an IP address..." ? (136 comments)

Further, please read a post before you reply to it. "Having your property associated with a crime does not prove criminal activity itself. It at best proves you were an accessory." Nothing you said in any way relates to what I said.
Re:"..know who was using an IP address..." ? (136 comments)
Most of Europe doesn't have an equivalent to the 5th Amendment. They, for whatever reason, do not see this as a problem. We are quickly ceasing to have it even here in the US.
Re:"..know who was using an IP address..." ? (136 comments)
Which is why the owner of a car is liable if it is stolen and used in a robbery?
Except not. Having your property associated with a crime does not prove criminal activity itself. It at best proves you were an accessory.
Your post is just scare tactics regurgitated from ISP PR departments, to sell more connections by scaring people into closing their public nodes.
Re:Subpoena (136 comments)
According to TFA, they have to already have been ruled to have infringed copyright, meaning they presumably already had the information the ISP would be giving, in addition to some proof of the supposed infringement. Basically, this isn't supposed to do anything, which makes me wonder why they want it at all. Hedging their bets on the judges they bought, perhaps?
Re:Romney/Ryan/Constitution Victory Speech (64 comments)
Just ignore the trolls. I know there are a lot of them lately. Slashdot's moderation system seems to have been co-opted by sockpuppets, but that's no excuse to feed ones at -1.

How else will it know it exists!?
Re:Like anyone is going to follow this (166 comments)
Yes. I do. The context of numerous people giving you factual information, and you acting like an asshole rather than actually refuting them. I hope they do, I really do. Your posts are far over-rated in this discussion at anything above -1. I would encourage everyone to keep watching your posts in general, in fact.
Re:Like anyone is going to follow this (166 comments)
The process is quite simple.
You link an image from Facebook, such as a "like" button. Every time someone views your page, that button is accessed, and your domain is the referrer. Facebook then sees the IP of the person viewing that image, and that referrer, and can potentially correlate that easily with the known IPs of Facebook users. Volla, Facebook knows every site you have been to.
This is not some kind of mythical concept. This was actually used to cause a brief hack scare on a site I used to administer.
That is not even getting into CSS hacks, which are still, effectively, open, and allow any site to access your browser history.
It's also pretty classic you're accusing me of being a tinfoil hat, considering you spent several hours going on about the evils of cookies and how this law is needed to protect your privacy, but that's ok, it's obvious you're a troll. I post this for the benefit of others, as I realize my original post was not totally clear.
Re:Like anyone is going to follow this (166 comments)
So your answer to having it pointed out this helps nothing and hurts technology in general is... to call me a douchebag and continue to say nothing of substance (really, I can tolerate being called names if the person actually puts in an effort).
Well, I can see the supporters of this measure are as mature as they come.
Re:Like anyone is going to follow this (166 comments)
"there you go with your cookie fetish again... it won't "break technology", it will merely neccessitate some recoding (keeping programmers employed)"
It will break it as it stands. That qualifies as "breaking" it in my book. The fact it can be fixed is irrelevant to the act of breaking it.
Also, broken window fallacy. Creating jobs is not an excuse to break things that work fine now.
"you're not too bright are ya... there are also laws that prohibit murder, but it doesn't prevent people from being murdered... maybe such pointless laws should be dropped too?"
If there was a law that stated you could not kill someone with a bladed weapon, and no law saying you could bludgeon them to death, then yes. It is stupid and ineffectual to have one but not the other, ESPECIALLY if part of the law calls for outlawing cooking knives.
"the law is about establishing a level of risk in doing what is against the law, so that if you engage in breaking the law there is a risk that you'll be caught and punished."
Or... people can simply do the same nasty things via still legal and not much more complicated means, effectively only harming the legitimate applications of the effectively banned technology.
"introducing a law that prohibits using such cookies without user consent means that there is now risk in engaging in some (not all) online privacy invasion "
1. Real privacy threats are outside EU jurisdiction, and will continue on their merry way.
2. It is trivial to shift tracking to other means.
3. It is NOT so trivial to shift legitimate uses, many of which lack good alternatives, as I and others have explained.
Costs: massive.
Benefits: near nil.
This isn't a well-reasoned policy. That leads me to think it is a feel-good policy.
Re:A Solution ... (166 comments)
Or just hold no physical presence in those countries, and still sell to them. More or less the same thing done with sales tax in the US. All this sort of thing does is make EU countries less likely to compete in the internet market. I guess I should be happy about it: it means the US will be able to pick up a lot of the space left by them.
Re:It's a damn stupid law (166 comments)
It's just another group of governments trying to flex their muscle to prove how bravado they are over the internet. It'll fail, they'll destroy their own IT industry in the process while the companies move to some less problematic country (in this case, the US), and no one will ever call the governments on it. It happens often.
Europeans especially seem to be unusually prone to this. At least us Americans tend to bitch about everything before, during, and after; that's arguably why we're still freer in a lot of important ways, despite having a much larger number of right-wing loons. It's also why nothing passes on a federal level other than "we dislike Hitler" bills. I'd still rather that than the alternative, though.
Re:Why is the burden on millions... (166 comments)
"Because the burden is on the one infringing on my right to privacy to prove necessity, not on me."
Or, you could, you know, block their cookies. Or disable cookies entirely. Or get the fuck off the internet if you are THAT worried about privacy, because, let me tell you, cookies are the absolute least of most people's privacy woes here.
Check the link in my signature. It's relevant.
Re:Why is the burden on millions... (166 comments)
"and how do you mandate that to a company that isn't in the UK?"
How do you mandate what sites do if they aren't in the UK?
The answer in both cases is: you do not, and that is by design.
Re:Cookies suck (166 comments)
It was also arguably made to be transferred over telephone lines and used by 16 bit computers.
Re:Like anyone is going to follow this (166 comments)
"the EU directive isn't nonsense. its not the ultimate answer to everything, but its at least a step in the right direction towards adressing some level of online privacy."
If breaking the vast majority of technology on the market to accomplish absolutely nothing is a "step in the right direction," then please, let us slide far in the wrong direction.
I will again say: it's about feel-good-fuzzy-warm-cuddlies, as you just proved. Not technology. This does zilch to protect your privacy, and if you were concerned about this aspect of your privacy, it was already a browser option. The directive breaks things to give people a useless protection they could have had in approximately 30 seconds if they cared. That's not the right direction. That is not even stupidity. That is a shameful waste of government time and money, and every European should feel ashamed their collective government would undertake it.
Re:Like anyone is going to follow this (166 comments)
If you took the 10 seconds it takes to put a username into the address bar (it's that one at the top of your browser), you'd see that I am indeed a real user, with the same writing style, who has the same opinion of idiots, as that "anonymous coward."
I am not disputing anything further with you. You're either a raw troll, or an abject fanatic with zero ability to see how stupid they appear to others. In either case, there is really not much point in actually discussing your talking points further. I already did, and you told me to kill myself when you noticed you had no idea what the words contained in my post meant.
Re:Like anyone is going to follow this (166 comments)
Again, my entire purpose for citing anything of my experience was to counter the statement that I must know nothing because I disagreed with the second-to-original retard poster. I am sorry it makes you feel inferior somehow that I do so. What you said is pretty obviously self-contradictory, and summarizing the exchange as I see it:
Me: "Well, I'm going to be an engineer."
You: "I am an engineer! A better one!"
You: "But qualifications don't matter!"
It's kind of self-contradictory and I am not sure what you hoped to gain. I was countering an ad homenin. Why you felt the need to make the discussion a dick sizing contest I am not sure. Perhaps because I am indeed the one quoting actual facts and you are just ranting about things?

The younger Barreiro "is a very nice, well-intended, but naive fellow," Ferre goes on. "He is not an evil person. The problem is he doesn't always have his own mind on things. He's a clean kid who goes around with people who aren't so clean, and that too has to make you stop and think."
Joe Geller, chairman of the Democratic Party in Dade County, echoes Ferre's assessment. "Bruno seems ill at ease with his responsibilities," Geller says. "He seems to me to be somewhat ill-suited for the job of politician. He's a pretty shy person. That may be a nice personality trait for a friend, but it is not an asset when your job is speaking out on behalf of the people. There have been a number of ethical questions raised about his conduct over time and the people he's around."
When people talk about the sleazy crowd Barreiro hangs out with, they are usually referring to State Sen. Alberto Gutman. The Miami Beach Republican and his noxious band of political mischief-makers played a key role in getting Barreiro elected -- and Gutman made sure Barreiro never forgot it.
In 1992 when Barreiro, a Republican, was first elected to the legislature, his family owned a small, financially struggling medical center in Little Havana known as Clinica Fatima. The HMO, which Barreiro's family had operated for more than two decades, was unable to maintain a $500,000 cash reserve as required by state law. The problem had persisted for so many years that state regulators were threatening to bar them from signing up any new patients until the financial troubles were corrected.
After Barreiro was elected, he was appointed to the House committee overseeing health-care legislation, while over in the Senate Gutman was named chairman of the powerful Senate Health Committee.
Within months of Barreiro's election, two cronies of Gutman surfaced and bought a controlling interest in the clinic for $580,000. State officials then certified the clinic to accept Medicaid patients. As a result, over the next year the clinic signed up hundreds of new Medicaid patients. The value of the business rose dramatically.
Eighteen months after Gutman's associates took over the clinic, they sold it to a subsidiary of one of Florida's largest HMOs, Physician Corporation of America (PCA), for ten million dollars. Gutman acted as the broker for the deal -- despite the fact that he had no experience handling such transactions -- and was paid a $500,000 commission.
Gutman wasn't the only big winner in the deal. Barreiro's father still owned fifteen percent of the company when PCA bought it. And PCA was forced to buy out a three-and-a-half-year "service contract" Barreiro Jr. held with the clinic. Although in 1995 the younger Barreiro told the Miami Herald his annual salary under that contract was $24,000, he said last week he was paid "about $200,000" for his service contract as a result of the PCA deal.
Gutman and Barreiro were sharply criticized for the transaction. Many people thought the two men had used their offices to work the lucrative deal. Particularly intense criticism was directed at Gutman, who as chairman of the Senate Health Committee that same year had blocked efforts by Gov. Lawton Chiles to toughen laws regulating Medicaid HMOs -- a reform PCA strongly opposed.
Looking back on the sale, Barreiro sees nothing wrong with the way it was handled. "Not really," he says, offering no elaboration. And Gutman, he asserts, has never controlled him. "That's an issue that a lot of people bring up," he says. "A lot of people have said that I'm controlled. Under no circumstance is that so. I've got my own mind."
Today Barreiro, a former University of Miami business major who dropped out after two years, says he earns a living through his own investment company, BABJ Investments, which manages his parents' money.
Janitza Kaplan is no fool. Those who know her say she is extremely bright and tough-minded. A native of Puerto Rico, she runs the South Florida office of the governor of Puerto Rico. Before that job she worked as a marketing analyst for various companies. She is 34 years old and has been married to Kaplan for eleven years. They have one child.
She claims she is not running as a front for her husband. "I understand where that idea might come from, but it is absurd," she says. "I'm my own person. I speak my mind. Bruce is Bruce and Janitza is Janitza. Bruce tried to talk me out of this, but I said we can't just let Bruno take over this seat, it would be wrong."
Kaplan has had her own problems. When the State Attorney's Office investigated her husband for mortgage fraud, she was also targeted by prosecutors because she too had signed the loan documents. As part of Bruce Kaplan's plea agreement, in return for accepting a conviction for the bogus financial disclosure form and resigning from office, the State Attorney's Office dropped its probe of the loan application. The state attorney's close-out memo in the case, however, also notes there was no evidence that his wife knew about the alleged attempts to mislead the mortgage company. Janitza Kaplan says she believes the effort by prosecutors to push her husband out of office was part of a "political vendetta."

The National Wildlife Refuge System, within the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, manages a national network of lands and waters set aside to conserve America's fish, wildlife, and plants.
The Liberty Loop and Winding Waters Trails are some of the best places in northern New Jersey and southern Orange County in New York to view the many shorter distant migrants such as sparrows and raptors that continue to move through the Wallkill Valley. You may expect to see good numbers of Song, White-throated, Savannah and Swamp Sparrows along with White-crowned and Fox Sparrows. If you are persistent you may find the less common Lincoln's or Vesper Sparrow. A rare Leconte's Sparrow was recently reported at the Liberty Loop. Northern Harrier numbers are increasing and many of these birds will over winter here. Normally this would also be the peak waterfowl migration season but due to a prolonged dry spell, water levels in the impoundments at the Liberty Loop are well below average so the numbers of ducks are below average as well.
The federally threatened bog turtle can be found in wetlands throughout the Wallkill River valley and the Papakating Creek Watershed. Endangered by habitat loss and poaching (the diminutive turtle is favored among illegal pet traders), this turtle is an important focus of the refuge's conservation work. Due to their listed status, refuge public use areas are located away from sensitive bog turtle habitats.
